Virtual Event
Sat 10th August 2024
3 races
Organiser's Description
The Garden Spot 5K Run and 5K Walk is back and will be better than ever! IN-PERSON, IN FRANKLIN KY!
We will continue to have a Virtual 5K option for the 2024 event for those that can't join us in person on race day, but want to participate on their own schedule and at their own location.
Held annually in beautiful downtown Franklin, Kentucky, this event attracts a sizable crowd for a day out filled with fun and awards! The primarily flat course carries participants through historic downtown Franklin and into beautiful partially shaded residential areas, finishing back at the old Simpson County Courthouse. Awards in fourteen age categories are presented from the bandstand as participants and onlookers enjoy the shaded area provided by 100 year old maple trees. All registrants will receive an event shirt!
It all adds up to a great weekend in Franklin, Kentucky!
The Franklin-Simpson Chamber of Commerce appreciates the support of The Medical Center at Franklin, Chaney’s Dairy Barn and contributing sponsors; The Mint Gaming Hall at Kentucky Downs, City of Franklin, Franklin Bank&Trust, Franklin Electric Plant Board, Franklin Precision Industry, Franklin-Simpson Industrial Authority, German American Bank, Legacy Group Properties, NHK, Price Less IGA, Simpson County Fiscal Court, Southcentral Kentucky Community&Technical College and Wilkins Eye Care in conducting this race.
